Well ovi there's not going to be a huge diff without the lower bar etc however my car does feel slightly more responsive it turns sharper and seems to have less front rolling defo worth the mod IMHO :)

The TT one needs modifying slightly as the bonnet risers are in a different position. It means you have to cut some of it away slightly.
